UP) The second session, rsmiblican national conven tion was called to order by Tempor ary Chairman Hess at 10 a ( a. m. central standard time. Ten-thirty, the hour aat for con vening, cune and went without a sigh at acuo'i. At that hour not half of the uuenatae were in their n laces and we speciacorar galleries were not a Quarter filled. Senator Moses, after vainly trying to summon one of the tnree messengers theoretically as signed to his service, had climbed down into the delegate arena and dis appeared up a side aisle. The tempor ary chairman, Senator Fees of Ohio, woo was to preside at the beginning of the session only, was in his place on the platform thumbing over some notes on the opening formalities and talking with other party leaders. The band filled in while the convention machinery waited. It was 10:87 when Senator Fees finally detached himself from the group ox leaders who had gathered- about him and began to nn miner zor order. .' Seats Half Filled At this time the thousands of seats reserved for spectators were not more than half filled. The late comers were pouring in in an increasing number and adding to tne contusion ana noise. Without waiting for any real quiet in the hall. Senator Fese, with one bat despairing whack of his big wooden hammer introduced the right Rev. Thomas F. Lulls of the Roman Catholic diocese of Kansas City who offered the openina prayer while the delegates stood and ibscams silont and a sputtering hUetg light Hired the bishop and the chairman's platform into blinding relief. While he prayer was being offered, the farm demonstrators after a morn ing pep meeting showed .p outside the convention nail Ther - walked abont the doorways but mad no im mediate attempt to gain an entry. Bedlam Breaks Silsnoe The invocation ended with the Lord's prayer, repeated In unison by the standing delegates and spectatorf. At the "amen" conversation again broke all bounds on the floor and in the galleries and the bedlam continued while Senator Feas announced the ac ceptance by the chair of a gravel made of Utah copper and presented to the convention as an evidence of Utah's resources and prosperity. The temporary cnairman men took minute to correct a mlasteD he made yesterday when, In attempting to deliver his keynote speech from memory, he forgot to montion the name of Theodore Roosevelt in his roll call of the achievements of the republican presidents. As ha repeated the praise he bad Intended to give to Roosevelt, the convention rose and anDlauded for a half minute, the first real ahow of spirit In the day proceedings. There waa a waiting of a few min utes while a messenger waa on his way to the hall with tie report of the afeaentuua cummittwe ana senator Feas turned the convention over to the band. It began by playing "Amer ica," with most of the audience stand- ins- and iolnlna in. While the band played on the farm reiiet hioc rrom tne nortnweat maae its first bid for a hearing in the con vention hall. P. D. Norton of tits North Dakota delecatlon Irving to make himself heard above the hand music, shouted a parlimlnary in quiry wnetner it would oe in order to have some out address the con vention. "It would not." said Senator Fess- The North Dakotan added that he had wanted to move that Senator McMaster make a speech. The temporary chairman merelr shook his head and while the band played on withdrew from the plat form out of eight of many of the delegates. Norton continued to Taii.lv address the chair and then undertook to climb an for a neraonal talk with the chair. man. But a aroun of delesatea from other states Intercepted him and after a snore ana apparently gooa narurea discussion the North Dakotan de sisted. As he wss turning back toward his seat, he met Senator OiUett of AiaaachuMtts with whom he had served some years ago in l ie house. "Why don't you maks a speech?" asked Norton. r ' But OiUett shook his head and the incident annarentlv waa closed Thereafter Senator Fees remained out of sight until he was brought again to the front of the platform oy a great outburst of cheering in one section of the gallery, discovered to be mainly a chorus of demands for a speech by Will Itogers. laughingly the rest of the assemblage craned lta next to see what would happen but the Oklahoma cowboy humorist kept his seat in the proas stand and the chairman poundeu for order until the outburst had been quieted. Through It all the band still was doing Its beat to keeD some semblance of action In the convention and succeeded very poorly because Its music waa almost lose in tne runtnie or conversation. All of th s time, the parliamentary situation, as they say In the senate, was mat tne convention was waiting for the renort of Its committee on delegate credentials which had been In seaainn moat or the time since yester day. The chairman of thla committee was Mrs, Alnnel Walker Willebrandt, first and only woman assistant at torney general. Th convention had been waiting for her for nearly an hour when she finally walked down R center aisle and was escorted to the platform. unairwomaa unserea Tjooklns as frsh a dntirr after th trying work of the committee over which wis presided, Mrs. Wllle ihrandt waa presented to the conven tion by Senator Feaa while every delegate took notice and moat of thtm cheered. In a voice m clear as any heard, the lady chairman made a brief pre liminary statement of what th com mittee had done and then began read ing from the formal report of the committee typewritten on a aheat of legal slsed bond serin began with Florida explaining the coinmltte circumstances which led up to the delegst conteat in that state, and then proceeding similarly with the other ststes from which ther are delegate content. Fight Threatened The word waa l in mod about during the reading that there was a possibil ity that the contesting Wurshach fac tion from Texas nnarated by the cre dential oommlttee might take Its fight to the convention floor Itself but that none of th other disappointed would be drlcgatea would appeal. While th dry detaila of th cre dentials committe work were read, th hlg convention listened with an intentness due rather to th noveltr of feminine participation In lta rou tine work than to any interest in the report Itself. Mrs. V lllebrsndt s Hear, low s voice seemed to reach every partsof ta aaO wita taa aid of tb aawli- tiers. She waa fully self-possessed. When Mrs. Willebrandt announced committee approval of th Crtager Hoover delegation from-. Texas a about of "atta hoy" came from a far gallery where a Hoover booster perched. That snd an occasional spst ter of handelapplng, was about all the interruption the assistant attorney renarsl met as she continued reading. The hall remained remarkably quiet and attentive. As Mrs. Willebrandt concluded, Daniel O. Hastings of Delaware hold ing a proxy for Coleman Du Pont of that state waa recognised to present a minority report on district dele gates from Texas. It recommended Beating a different list of Wurxbach delegates which Hastings read. Judge Hasting made a five min ute limit address in support of the minority report. "The only point we want to bring before the convention is whether or not th law of th state of Texas is binding upon this convention," he said. The majority report meant prac tically adoption of a "unit rule" for republican national convention dele gates the speaker went on and waa a "serious question." - . Mrs. Willebrandt took the platform airain to answer Hastings. While a national convention "makes Its own laws" such a convention in other yeara had ruled that state laws on delegation selections apply.

OP Hurdling the prohibition enforcement plank problem, the republican con vention resolutions committee found itself blocked early today on the question of farm relief and after five boura adjourned at dawn to resume ita diacusslons in the middle forenoon.

The farm relief plank as proposed by the administration leaders pro- voxea so mucn aiscussion taat mem bers of the committee were satisfied that an agreement was Impossible un til further conferences could be held and it was for this reason that an adjournment was taken. The failure of the sub-committee to conclude Its labors In Its overnight session made It certain that the plat form would not be presented to the convention until tomorrow. After the snb-committe had wound up its work, the entire resolutions committee must pass judgment upon its action. Borah Plank Hot ' Adoption by the sub-committee of the Borah plank regarding prohibition enforcement is certain to , lead to a fight in the entire committee and fromthere it may find lta way to the floor of the convention. - Leaders in the New York. New Jersey and other delegations have declared against any declaration by th convention - which would identify the prohibition amend ment over other amendments in the constitution. . As the snb-committe adjourned, members would not even venture a guess aa to the time that would be required to thresh out the farm relief problem. It was indicated very olearly that the division in th com mittee was wide, and It was regarded as posstDie mat tnis suDjecc mignt have to be referred to the entire committee for a decision.

Confidential Monthly Reports keep members posted, thus furnishing a valuable Credit Guide. Names and addresses of De linquents are given, together with number and amounts of their indebtednesses. All debtors are notified and given ample time to settle their accounts before their names are listed and it is Not the Purpose to Embarrass Any Man, Rich or Poor, Who Does His Best to Meet His Obliga tions. Names of delinquents are not removed from these lists for any reason until the account is PAID. --' ' ' . - .. aid Claims Are Advertised For Sale to the Highest Bidder Where, payment is persistently refused, unpaid claims are advertised for sale from time to time. By reducing credit losses this system enables business men to operate at less cost and to sell at Lower Prices. It also Enables Them to Extend Credit to Those Who Deserve and Respect Credit.
